Not much needed here. Hope you enjoy. Feel free to review.

Why does the sun shine so bright 

Sometimes it tends to block my night 

Sleep runs away and hides from me 

Bloodshot eyes I try to see 

But nothing exposes to me the truth 

Ive lived this lie from my early youth 

And now I just don’t want to see 

The truth is right in front of me 

Telling me how I cant hide 

There is no one in who I confide 

I sit in my thoughts and they build and build 

They drill through my head ever so hard willed 

Drowning myself in my own head 

Yes I live but im already dead 

It was a long path but ive reached the end 

Digging my grave my spirit ascends 

Free from the prison that is this life 

I lay on the ground, in my back is your knife 

I thought I could trust you but oh I was wrong 

And no one will know it was you all along 

You showed me one hand while you hid the other 

A knife in my spine from my own dear brother

Life is full of riddles and if we fail to solve it, we never know what happens. Because every riddle has a question and answer hid in itself which unlocks many mystries of life. Its very hard these days to believe even our shadows when our own kith and kin betray us. Sometimes strangers are trustworthy than those who we know.
I believe that you have overcome your betrayal and have started trusting good people.
Take care my friend coz we never know how things changes.
A very heartfelt writing, thanks for sharing.
